Wow, such a magical room put together by Cadence for her son Shane! She designed the wall decals, photo display and illustrated blocks. She writes: My inspiration came from the amazing lamp shade by Tord Boontje which hanging in the center of the room. This room used to be our guest room with a queen size bed which I kept minus the box spring and the frame so we can snug up in the bed to read and play together. The theme of this room is Whimsical Fantasy Land....

 
 

I wanted to create fun, dreamy, amusing, flamboyant and virbrant room with a modern twist. I hope to build many more fun and precious memories with my kids here.

Thanks, Cadence !

Those wall blocks are awesome! Are they wood? You are very talented!

The lamp, the monkey bedding, the colors -- all so fresh and fun. I really love it all, but my favorite part is probably the photo foursome. What a cool way to display his baby photos!

Thank you everyone for your kind comments!
Melissah, I drew the art works in illustrator program and sent it out to a local printer to make them to decals. It's really easy process. All you have to do is position them on to a wall, peel the back side, rub the art works on the wall and remove the front paper. It's a cool way to personalize your room.

Any chance you want to sell those decals? They're gorgeous, and I love the blue/orange combo. It's grown-up enough and doesn't scream baby. The blocks on the wall are very clever, too.

I love blue/orange combos! That's what I have in my "adult" room, along with white and gun barrel gray. I absolutely love this room! Fantastic Job!

The silver bear was a gift from a friend. I believe it's from Pier 1 imports.
